Never agree to be on a library committee without first reading its charge. Sometimes an innocuous sounding group, like the "Collection Assessment Revisioning Team," turns out to be the code name for your library's secret book cart dance troupe. And, yes, costumes are mandatory.

Very sound advice. I'm on some committees (like, collection development and technology "stuff") and if any of them ever turns into "dancing with a book cart," I will just go break my ankle or something. Because, while a broken bone sucks, nothing can suck as much as national humilation with a book cart.
